I took dance my whole life and in high school taught Lainey's age group at my studio! So fun! I miss dance which is why I love to watch Dance Moms on Lifetime! Keep all her costumes! ESP since they are her first real ones. I still have my first along with my shoes. My Mom wants to frame if we are ever lucky enough to have a child and it's a girl

Although I want to keep Quinn tiny forever because I know she will grow up too fast as it is.... I cannot wait for her to have adventures like this. I'm not looking forward to the costs... but that's life. And LOVE Lainey's tutu. Also love that her little friend decided at one point to wear her tutu as a bandeau top instead of a skirt. Classic.

Love it Casey ... those two girls together are trouble! I thought soccer was expensive but Bia is going to drain us when she starts a more formal dance class. But like Lainey I think she was born to dance.

I feel your pain. I just had to fork over $280 for costume fees for my girls and it is $70 a month for both of them to take dance. There will also be recital fees in our future. However, this is Emily's first year and when they are in the "baby class", their daddies dance with them on stage at the recital. Jason will have to wear a tux. It is the sweetest, most adorable thing (Caroline did it too) and I have been looking forward to this since the ultra sound revealed that we were having girl #2!!

Lainey is going to have soooo much fun! I still want to put Kamree in a real studio some day, but I love the Y classes for a whopping $40 total and no recital hassles or expense either. She is going to take a hip hop class just for fun and we are totally bailing on the recital because they are sooo unorganized!

I can't wait to hear about how her progress is. Actually, I have had multiple people tell me that I would probably be one of those "dance" or god forbid "pageant moms" but somehow knew better and gave me a boy. Now I have a boy who could care less about sports....sigh.
